Euro Truck Simulator on Mac App Store

In recent months, we have received a lot of e-mails asking for bringing good old Euro Truck Simulator to OS X platform. It looks like penetration of Mac computers among the fans of truck sim games is growing.

Tonight, we finally received the confirmation e-mail from Apple that the game has been approved for release on Mac App Store!



We still have some work to do - ETS as well as Bus Driver still don't properly support steering wheels, gamepads, or joysticks as input devices on Mac. Fortunately this support is finally very close to completion, too, so both games will receive an update in a couple of weeks.

    1. May I make a very general suggestion for all your superb truck sim games?
      Firstly would it be possible to make the games more "lady" friendly? I am a woman and I adore your sims! My dad was a trucker and I was practically born in the cab so this is close to my heart. I find it a bit odd that some of the names in skill levels are a tiny bit too macho. Could it be possible to select "male/female" in the user options? Us ladies love to haul too!!
      Secondly I would love to see a trans China/Tibet highway location. This would be a REAL challange! As I have travelled by bus, extensivly on this road I know first hand at how dangerous it is and was even involved in a nasty smash on the side of a mountain. This would be fab if you could consider this! Kathmandu, Nepal road from Gorokpur, India would be superb too!!
      Keep up the wonderfull work!
      Love vixtravels2@hotmail.com

  2. That's nice for Mac users.
    Me on the other had uses PC.

    Does anyone know if there are any truck sims out in the market from 2011 or if there wil come some in the first half of 2012.

    SCS: Of cause I also want to buy your games but I can not wait untill release of ETS 2. And you still haven't given uss some proper informaton about your small new game.

    2. why a Ps3 release. Console game on average are double the price of PC games . Who would seriously want to pay double for the same game

    3. PS3 video card is whaay to bad for this game

    4. What is the matter with you. STC have trubble making the money they need as it are. Why should they waste money on making their games work on PS3. Many of their coustomours will not pay dubble the money for the game. And there are enougth people pirate copying the game as it are. Dumb recrest.
      But I'm not the boss here on this blogg. So all coments are welcome. That's meen both your and mine.

      Sorry about the bad spelling and gramatic. I'm just upsett.

  7. SCS, increasingly opening their horizons.

    You are even right about that, but bad for those who like to play with steering wheels, joysticks because it is not compatible for Mac

    But guess it worth but at least these people feel a taste of being a truck driver ...

  15. Great news. I hope you will get the money you need to release ETS2 and bring to us other games (American Truck Simulator; Bus Simulator 2)

    ReplyDelete
  16. That's great for Mac users, but I think if you really want to hit the jackpot with PC users, you should really think about making ETS2 available for Steam too. What do you think about it?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. as long as it is NOT Steam only . I know of other game manufactures who allegedly used Steam to avoid the game being pirated and know also that those games were still pirated and available anyway within days of release or even before. I certainly do not want to have to download and use something totally unneccessary as Steam

    2. I wasn't talking about making it Steam only, but rather making it available for Steam too.

    3. Well, maybe he shouldn't told you shut up, but he's right in one thing: your message sounds so ungrateful. Because - you know - tell me about one, just one company which supplies their fans with news and pictures and videos about new game so often as SCS does. We saw enormous amount of ETS2 material from very start of this blog until today (not to mention lots of materials about ET2 and T&T). I'm so glad SCS doing it. And I'm also glad that time to time, I can hear about something different (but still related) from their kitchen.

    4. Maybe SCS was spoil me with too many news?
      About ungrateful...if the game satisfy some of my expectations then I will buy it and on that way show my gratitude. -one company? MR Software :)

  26. dear scs software,you guys are pretty famous for making trucking games, i think you guys should start making other games. one of the games that i would really like to see is a bridge building simulator.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. A new bridge building simulator would be perfect

      Delete
    2. Nothing against games like bridge building, they are funny, but I think it's not for SCS. They should concentrate on big vehicles, they are better and better every year on this field.

      One day I though about truck racing game, something in mood of Rally Dakar. Of course it would be almost impossible to get Dakar license, but something in that spirit - driving truck through desert and mud, finding your way only with map and compass, maybe manage your team, accompanying truck, repairs... and maybe even upgrading your truck between seasons and so on. That's probably game which SCS could manage, with their experience, and maybe (I'm not game industry expert, so I'm saying maybe) it could interest more players then pure spedition games.

      Delete
    3. well it would be a great side game and scs should have by now probably improved their physics a lot, so it would help them make the game better compared to the others ones on the market. It would also help scs make some profit.

  27. Make sure you update UK truck sim with the steering wheel updates to SCS!. not just eurotruck.

    ReplyDelete
  28. Many, many congratulations, SCS! I'm always glad when I hear about your success. No matter if it's a milestone or partial success, no matter if it's business or technological success, I'm always proud on my beloved company, maybe small in number of people, but so big in size of hearts.

    I believe your games kinda fillig niche on Mac (well, maybe not so big niche, but still), it was smart move. So I wish you only the best with one of you most known games on App Store, may it be even bigger success then Bus Driver was! :-)

  32. Why the bitching and whining on here about this being made available for Mac systems . SCS are a small publisher and need to maximise their sales to stay in business . I would rather they did things like this than turn round and say "Thats it guys we are broke , no more games from us " . People on other operating systems have just as much right to enjoy games as people on windows .
    If the sales from this and other games help to finance better quality in ETS2 then keep doing it SCS .

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. SCS needs to start making money on new quality games and not on 4 years old game,with only 179MB size and 30$ is too much for that game...a robbery.

      So don't be ridiculous.

    2. they spend all their money on ETS 2 so they need MORE money, thats why they port there old games to mac users

    3. ...damn money! they can take a loan in bank as in the game :D. It seems that we all need to start buying SCS games and I believe that ETS2 would be worth buying.

    1. I agree,gameplay concept of T&T was really stupid and unrealistic(park a truck in limited time and space...pain in the ass).With such games SCS will never earn serious money,they will just lose the trust of the community.I can only hope that ETS2 will not have anything similar with that game,except graphic.

      Delete
    2. you know there are mods for the game at truckpol and the game was just to show us how good the graphecs are and phisiscs for ets2 but I loved it well not all the pain in the but parking but the mod is great!

    I am very eager in knowing if SCS is going to launch this new ETS2 in August for Mac along with its PC version. I wish they do that. I'll definitely buy ETS2 when it comes out for Mac. If not I will still buy the PC version but, I will always wish to have the Mac Version over the PC version.
